Product and insight at the intersection of editorial, technology, and business

Initially customers most likely will use the Yummly API to provide more generic recipe content and search in their sites and apps. One of Yummly’s early API testers, search engine DuckDuckGo, uses the API to answer specific recipe queries, basically extending Yummly’s search portal onto its own site.

But developers will eventually be able to tap into Yummly’s technology to make their recipe and cooking services smarter. For instance recipe aggregation apps such as Evernote, Paprika and BigOven store recipes scrapped from all over the web, most of them drawn from the same sites Yummly categorizes. Those companies could use Yummly’s API to organize their customers personal recipe boxes into much more useful categories.

Testimonials

Wow! Josh figured out how to make our site super attractive, crystal clear, and easily navigable. And was a joy to work with!

Naomi Goldberg Haas Exec. Dir and Founder of Dances for a Variable Population

Working at Six Apart with Josh was a pleasure. Josh contributed his technical expertise and deep knowledge of social publishing to inform creative and scalable solutions for our clients. I was continually impressed with Josh’s ability to manage limited resources during a time of chaotic transformation within the organization. With his leadership of the Services team, our division consistently exceeded revenue goals and delivered superior service to clients. Josh is a very positive and personable colleague, always eager to provide a helpful perspective and support to both internal and external customers. I greatly appreciated Josh’s detail-oriented and direct approach, as well as his personal and professional integrity.

Carla Bourke, Chief Revenue Officer at Smartly

The thing that sets Josh apart is his ability to see the whole picture. He’s deeply into creating lasting value; if what you want is someone to slap together a carbon copy of the Latest Thing so you can cash out after a Series B, Josh is not your guy. But if you’re committed to thinking through what makes your product/company interesting, genuinely different and valuable to customers, Josh can help that happen — and you’ll stand a good chance of having fun while you’re doing it.

Dan Rosenbaum, Founder Center Ring Media

Back in 2004, Joshua convinced me to start a blog. He saw what I didn’t. He saw that I needed to branch out from print and venture into the world of on-line. He came up with concept as well as an award-winning design. He created a simple solution for a sticky problem and made it easy for me–he brought creativity that meshed the real world.

The results from the blog and site were evident immediately.

We worked together again on a redesign in 2008 (I wouldn’t go to anyone else after such a positive experience). What more can you ask from a provider? Work with you on cost, give you an on line identity, see how you can monetize and be a total professional to deal with. I cannot recommend his vision and implementation enough.

Alice Feiring, Publisher of the Feiring Line Wine Newsletter

Josh is truly talented and a pleasure to work with. He has deep expertise on what it takes to make a product launch successful and has been an key contributor to many projects.
His skills cover all key areas where a digital company needs strong players: overall strategy and vision, product innovation, business development and launch project management.
More importantly, he is always thinking about “the next big thing” in digital and will help your business look at the future in a new way.
